Eddie was a great father in law. We've been truly blessed to have had him in our lives. I wish we had more time together. Oksana especially will miss her Granddad but we know he will look after her from heaven.

Shirley,
I am so sorry about your loss. I did not know that Eddie was your brother. I got to know him when he worked at Masons Cove. We had lots of fun jokeing with each other. I called him "honery Eddie" & he thought that was so funny. I have lots of fond memories of him. God bless you & give you comfort during this sad time. He always talked fondly of his family & I know his passing will leave a huge void in your life. My thoughts & prayers are with you.
